We love mechanical watches of all sorts, but there are some watches that are a cut above. For us, it’s not just about the looks, or a single, superior characteristic; it’s about the history. There’s nothing like a timepiece that has an incredible story and lineage behind it. You can see their influence spiderweb it’s way into future watch generations. These are the kinds of watches that bring folks into watch collecting; the kinds of watches that make enthusiasts spend hours on end researching and learning. The Wound For Life Hall of Fame is our way of showcasing the best of timepieces built to stand the test of time.

Hall of Fame: Rolex Submariner 14060
By Neil Wood
The ref 5513 Submariner is a classic, and the ref 114060 SubC is an exercise in modern technology. But, the perfect mix of classic and modern is the 14060.
